How much it will cost is unknown
Apple is working on a new HomePod speaker with an “iPad-like display” built into it, but according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, the device is unlikely to launch before 2025 if plans go ahead implemented.
In the latest issue of Power On, Gurman said that Apple has begun «early work» on a HomePod with a screen with overseas suppliers, but he added that the company has not yet made «sufficient progress» in this device so that startup can be considered imminent.
Gurman reiterated that Apple was also exploring a device combining Apple TV, HomePod and a FaceTime camera, as well as iPad-like smart displays that could be magnetically attached to the wall, but it's unclear if there would be whether these products were ever released. He added that Apple has been «indecisive»for years. regarding your smart home product ideas.
Apple has changed course and released a new full-size HomePod speaker in 2023 after discontinuing the device in 2021. Apple also continues to sell the HomePod mini, which has not received any major hardware updates since its launch in 2020.
